So, my storie for now... i started one and a half months ago with the no deposit bonus for party poker (25 bucks), First month was the thougest, playing micro 2NL cash games, and how those ppl play is just HORRIBLE , bad beats and suck-out all the time, but it really hardened me, when u loose with AA to J3o, on a 10 8 2 board, it really gets me... but ok, i recoverd, got my bunkroll nice up to 60 something bucks and took a shoot at the 6 max 4NL (till now i only played Full ring), i had a bad feeleing, and i was right! First hand KK, went all in pre flop, and you guess it, i was up agains AA, bye bye money, second table JQs floped flush, guy goes all in and hits 2 runners for full house . 8 down, third table, my own faoult, since i was tilting made a total dunk call and lost... Stoped here, since i was really mad. then came my time, the bankroll mob new deposit freeroll, finished 6, 50 bucks up, went down in stakes, back on 2NL FR and got up to 120 bucks total. Second shot at 4NL 6 max, and AGAIN DOWN 30 bucks (i guess its not my game for now ) Now i didnt know what to do so i played a little and withdraw (my first withdraw ) 55 bucks leaving me with 30 on my bankroll. At the beginnig of this month i cleared my next 25 bucks from the bonus, having around 44 bucks and really DIDNT WANT TO GO BACK TO THOSE CURSED 2NL FR tables, and i took a shot at the 10NL FR tables (I know IT WAS TOTAL GAMBLING with my bankroll, furthermore since i had a very strict and neat banroll manegment, till now). This is now the best part, since i am at this 10NL tables, pushed my bankroll up to 120 bucks again in 8 days, still playing super tight, aggresive, solid poker, multitabling (for now 3-4 tables, since my bankroll is still to small for my standard 8+ tables , that i played at 2NL ) and clearing the rest of my bonus slowly. So hope i keep the good work and get my bankroll to 250 soon so i can afford the tables that i play on. Good luck to you all ppl. P.S. Any coments or questions just ask!

Well done indeed!
Always jealous of those who can play so many tables at once. Not really my thing, I screw up bigtime if I open more than 3 tables usually. (depending on the games) I usually mix everything up.
Also curious as to the cash tables. Seems to be a goldmine if you can play them. never gave cash much of a shot, really. Reading your story, maybe I should...

I'm happy that you managed to build your roll back up, but man please for the love of god stick to your bankroll. Seriously, watch that video. It seems like you're a solid player, and there's no shame in dropping back down in stakes.
I myself have been grinding out $2NL on Party, rebuilding the roll I had that's currently frozen on full tilt.
I as well started with the $25 party bonus and I'm currently sitting around the $60 mark. Sure it's painful grinding out micros with the donks, but it's the safe/smart route.
Btw, what's your name on party? We might have crossed paths at some point since I as well sit around 4+ tables when I'm grinding If you see me (Sevendooce79) say hi

nice story indeed Pile, Party has some of the softer plus donkier competition around on cash games. Too many roulette boys, no-math & river hunters. I also remember playing some of that silly Double Hold'em some time ago and everybody was chasing dragons and doing their thing without having a clue... Tilt monkeys are on the loose on Party and with some attention and right moves you can spot them easily and get their monies. GL
